Release Notes - 23rd April 2024

Improvements/Changes

Pointerra3D Core

  • "Link to this view" now links to scan views (if open when creating the link).
  • Added support for exporting points clipped by polygons containing holes.
  • Add support for exporting pointclouds/DEMs into another coordinate system where a datum shift is required. This is currently enabled for beta testing for specific customers. Please contact Pointerra support to test.
  • User export list has been moved from the user profile page to the "Exports" tab in the company page. Use this to access historical export requests and download the files.
  • Ensure preservation of vertex normals in the 3d model import pipeline.
  • Added a "flat shading" option for 3d model display.
  • Added an option in the scans panel to control clustering of 3D scan setup markers.
  • Tightened some restrictions on users being able to move/add point clouds to other collections in line with permissions.
  • Improved load times for point cloud collection browsing pages.
  • Improved reporting of corrupt LAS/LAZ files when processing.
  • Added support for uploading Hatanaka-compressed Rinex files (.crx or .crx.gz) for pre-processing jobs.
  • Improved page loading speed for dataset details page when the dataset is attached to a large number of point clouds.
  • Added ability to search for project with particular spatial reference properties in point cloud advanced search.
  • Multiple enhancements to dataset searching/filtering (in datasets manager for dataset admins)
    • Filter datasets by type or analytic type.
    • Search for datasets with particular spatial reference properties
    • Added ability to filter datasets by additional properties such as "Photo inspection type" or "Input file type".
    • Filter dropdowns now have an easier way to filter by a single option.

Analytics

  • Allow deletion of poles imported from a CSV.
  • Speed and scalability improvements for extremely large tree analytics datasets (e.g. more than 10M trees)
  • Tree analytics can now create a binary raster output product (Geotiff) that has pixels within tree canopies filled.
  • Add hover labels for min clearances/clearance samples.
  • Allow clearance samples and min clearances to be clicked on to have the label always visible.
  • Added viewer option to hide pole labels.
  • Added color by attribute for wire display.
  • Added network span analysis tool.
  • Added ability to search for poles with a set of attribute queries.
  • Poles and Wires analytics can now take a network path file (geojson) to limit the search area for assets when running the analytics.
  • Add SHP format to P&Wv3 report generation.
  • New autoclassification profile added for LADAR data,
  • Added CRS to tree shp exports (now exports into native project coordinate system). Added unit (ft/m) conversion to CSV exports.

Utility Explorer

  • New span and unmatched poles layer added to Network reports

Bug Fixes

  • Disabled incorrectly sending notifications to collection managers when merging point clouds.
  • Fix for save button not showing after importing CSV into a poles and wires v3 dataset.
  • Fixed a bug causing the buttons on the dataset creation popup to disappear sometimes.
  • Fix for viewer crash when creating a horizontal crop box below the bottom plane of the pointcloud.
  • Improved response time of the exports page for exports from point clouds with many layers.
